Comment:

 Tested this patch by going through the following steps:

 1. Uploaded an image to use as a logo (700px x 700px) and applied an alt-
 tag.
 2. Was prompted to crop said image, which I did, resulting in the alt-tag
 changing to the site title.
 3. Uploaded a different image (250px x 250px) and applied an alt-tag.
 4. Was given the option to skip cropping, which I did. Original alt-tag
 remains.

 Clearly the issue where the alt-tag gets removed post-cropping (and thus
 replaced thanks to this patch) needs to be addressed as this leads to
 inconsistent behavior in the user experience. Will probably be best to
 create a new issue for this.
